 Description of CSR Well 3

Very dense, lush area with large washaways. Track into Well 3 is a loop road. Camping no good on the loop due to unlevel ground and risk of flooding.

Well 3 full restored (1998) and in excellent condition. It is fenced, signed, and contains a plaque with historical information. Operating with windlass and metal rope, steel bucket, well lids however at the time or research the water was foul with a terrible smell. Not fit for consumption at the time although has a history of good water.
